WITH VOTES 10 SI’AR[I
303 Votes Cast For Bonds
-Out of Registration
of 361.
¥ e e
The election which was held Wednes
day to decide on the issue of bonds to
the extent of $20,000 to be used for
building and equipping new schools in
Marietta was carried in favor of bonds.
“The vote was 303 for bonds and 8
against. The total vote registered for
the election was 361.
The election was authorized by the
legislature last summer and was to
have been voted on last fall when the
commission government charter was
defeated but it was thought at that
time that the two questions might be
confusing and the Board of Education
asked that the school bonds be voted
on at a later date,

MR, HARRIS IS A CANDIDATE FOR ASSISTANT SOLICITOR GENERAL

ON HERBERT CLAY’S TICKET.
C. L. Harris, better known as Charley
HMarris, was born in Dawson County in
1872. and reared on a farm. His father
gave him one year in colliege at Dahlone
ga, and the balance of the time he paid
by his own labor. He graduated in
Dahionega in 1899, and taught school
several years after graduating. Was
admittted to the Bar in 1908, His father
is a Georgian, living near Gainesville,
Ga.; and an old confederate soldier.
His mother was raised in Forsyth
county.
Mr, Harris is at present mayor of
Domestic Econemy in England. ‘
Domestic economy is now buingt
taught in the English public schools, |
and, as a result of a recent devision:
of the South Shields education com
mittee, the teacliers under that au
thority are now engaged in instruct
ing scholars how a man, wife and two
children can best live on °n income
of 21 shillings ($5.11) a week. The
London county council also teaches
domestic economy, but in the sylla
bus of instruction issued by that body |
the 'lowest budget is 28 shillings
(6.81). The Yorkshire Observer
states that as, according to a labor
member of parliament, there are
about 100,000 railway emploves, many
of them in Yorkshire, working for
less than 20 shillings ($4.87) a week,
it is well that the daughters of work
ing men should be taught how to
“make ends meet” on the sums many
of them are likely to be called upon
to handle as wives and mothers.
One Redeeming Feature,
She—Poor cousin Jack! And to be
eaten by those wretched cannibals.
He—Yes, my dear child: but he gave
them their first taste in religion!—

Local Capitalists Will Sup

Holstery.

Marietta IS going to have a new
‘hotel. This is a fact. No definite
plans have been made for the building
or the location but it has been deter
‘mined that Marietta must and shall
%have a new hotel. The need of a good
ihotel here has long been felt and while
the present movement has been on
foot for more than a month this is the
first time that the Journal has been
permitted to make the fact known.
} The capital stock will be $50,000 and
‘will be all common. If a capable hotel
sman can be found who will take some
of the stock he will be given preference
‘[in selecting a manager for the business
but this is only to assure a deeper in
iterest of the manager in the success of
the venture.
’ That the following gentlemen will be
stockholders in the new enterprise is
ithe best we can say for it: Messrs.
lMorga.n McNeel, A. V. Cortelyou, J.
E. Massey, James T. Anderson, J. J.
‘Black, C. W, DuPre and E. L. Stringer.
the city of Cumming, and County Su
perintendent of Schools. He is a mem
ber of the Methodist Church, an Odd
Fellow and K. P., and is universally
recognized as one of the strongest and
most popular men in Forsyth county.
He is a good lawyer, and an honest
gentleman, and has the respect of all
who know him. The fact that he is
connected with Herbert Clay means a
great deal of help to him in his race
for Solicitor General not only in aiding
in his election, but in aiding him in the
enforcement of the law after he is
elected Solicitor General,
Weddings and Telegrams.
“l want all you boys to be right on
the job at two o'clock and at four and
eight this evening,” said the chief op
erator in the local telegraph office.
The persons addressed were four mes
senger boys. “What is going to hz\p-'
pen at two, four and eight o'c\ock?"l
asked a man who had overheard the
order. “Weddings,” said the operator.
“There is a whole bunch of weddings
in this neighborhood scheduled for the
afterncon and evening and the boys
must be on hand to deliver telegrams
of congratulations. We have to keep |
a sharp eye on weddings. About half
an hour before the time set for the
ceremony the ‘God bless the union’
messages come pouring in from out-of
town friends. Three telegrams have
already been received with instrue
tlons to hold them until the ceremony
ils about over.”
Saved and Salved It.
! “It wag a terrible situation.” said
Dubbleigh. “There we were hub deep
iin the sand and the tide rising. At
| the end of an hour the water was up
| to the floor level of the tonneau, and
then 1 managed to get hold of an old
cuss with a team of horses and he
hauled us out.” “Py George! that was
a narrow escape. What did you give
the old fellow for rescuing you?” said
Higgs. “I offered the old duffer $lO,
but he was a retired sea captain and
he attached the car for salvage.” sald

MARIETTA JOURNAL AND COURIER
BARBECUE JULY 4TH.
Every Registered Voter in
Cobb County Will
be Invited.
The merchants of Marietta are plann
ing a big time for the fourth of July.
They want to give a big barbecue and
invite every registered voter in Cobb
County to come out and join with them
in celegrating the progress which Ma
rietta and Cobb County are making If
‘anyone who comes wants to express his
views on any progressive undertaking,
either for or against, they will be given
the opportunity to do so. The object
is to find out how the people stand in
the matter of good roads, good schools
and better things in general.
It is realized by the merchants that if
the city and county do not work to
gether that neither can make the pro
gress they can make by sticking to
gether. But the primary object of the
barbecue will be just to get together
and have a good old time picnic.
LETTER TO MR.C. W. FOWLER
FROM STATE VETERINARIAN
Atlanta, Ga., May 8, 1912,
Mr. C. W. Fowler, Marietta, Ga.
Dear sir: Responding to your inquiries
of recent date will say that Prof. J.
Phil Campbell is in charge of the boys
corn club movement. I talked with him
personally after receiving your letter
and he assured me that Cobb County
has this year a small ‘“‘Boys Corn Club’’.
Tick eradication has not been taken
up in Cobb County because there is a
lack of interest in the work. As soon
as the people Yegin to realize the
annoyance and loss occasioned by the
presence of ticks on their farms they
will get busy to eradicate them and
insist that their less progressive neigh
bors be made to do the same thing,
I venture to say, without fear of con
tradiction, that the good cattle raised
in Cobb County hail from premises that
are entirely or at least practically free
of ticks. .
Some people say ticks dont hurt
cattle, but you just watch the cattle‘
and you will see that the cattle flatly
contradict such statements; ticky cattle {
are poor cattle; and poor cattle are cheap
cattle; and cheap cattle means loss of
interest in the buisness A progressive
county like Cobb cannot afford to feed!
ticks and thus doom their cattle to
serub development |
If ticks are a good thing we should
breed them and place them on our cattle
instead of fighting them, but I have
never yet met a man who thought ther_‘el
was any money or common sense in
doing that.
No Ticks, Better Pastures, and More
well bred, profit producing Cattle
would transform Cobb county in to an
africultural section equalled by few,
and envied by all.
Yours truly,
JETER F. BAHNSEN,
State Veterinarian.

;RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY THE
~ BAR ASSOCIATION OF THE FED
~ ERAL COURT OF PORTO RICO
ON THE DEATH OF HARRY P.
. LEAKE.
Whereas, Our late brother at the
‘bar, Harry P. Leake, has been removed
from our midst and called to his final
rest; and
- Whereas, The members of the Bar
Association of the Federal Court of
Porto Rico ever uniformly recognized
in him not only a lawyer of ability but
also a gentleman of unfailing courtesy
and incorruptible honesty and a loyal
friend; and
Whereas, Having presided as judge
of the Insular Courts on various oc
casions, he brought to the fulfillment
of his duties the highest sense of
justice, rectitude and integrity; and
Whereas, During the years of his
residence in Porto Rico his life has
been an example of devotion to duty,
of constancy to high ideals, honesty
of purpose and unfaltering service in
the cause of friendship and of jus
tice; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Bar Assn. of
the Federal Court of Porto Rico has,
in the death of Harry P. Leake, lost
one of its most honored members;
the Court one of its most efficient of
ficers, and the community a useful,
upright and respected citizen; and be
it further {
Resolved, That his memory will long
abide with the members of this Asso
ciation individually, to be cherished‘
because of the kindliness which lenti
charm to his friendship and because
of the sincerity and loyalty which
made that friendship so valuable to
his associates. And be it further
Resolved, That these resolutions be
presented to the Court with the re.
quest that the same be spread upon
the minutes thereof, and a copy be
presented to his mother as evidence of
our sympathy with her and in her
great sorrow, and as evidence of the
esteem in which we held our departed
brother. (Signed.)
